Reducing your Texas energy bills and Allergies is easy with new tighter sealing windows and doors.
One thing you can count on is the crazy weather here in Texas; it will either be good or bad. It is always different than expected and brings with it the Spring factor of allergies, rain and heat. We were lucky this year in central Texas with a pretty mild winter reducing our energy bills for most. But who knows what the rest of spring will hold? We could still make up for all the missed nasty weather in the next couple months.
One of few downside of Central Texas living is the allergies. They can be down right brutal. According to the Mayo Clinic, about 50 million Americans suffer from allergies. Seasonal allergies or hay fever affect the majority of those and typically hit hardest in the spring. Local Texas allergies can come from trees, weeds, grasses and flowers. Although some medications and do-it-yourself remedies can relieve the symptoms associated with most allergies you can actually help prevent them altogether.
To minimize your exposure to outdoor allergens such as pollen and grass, invest in tighter sealing windows and doors that prevent the pollen from coming into your home.
Sealing up your San Antonio, Austin, Corpus Christi or Rio Grande Valley home with high performance vinyl replacement windows, new entry doors, and a good check and sealing of all cracks and holes in your home will go a long way in making you more prepared for what may come in the future months. With the middle of spring still in full force, it is a great time to think about new windows right now.
If you’ve already done all of this, think about the newest energy saver, reflective insulation for your attic. It really works and offers a great return on investment.
